F-A-L-L Birthday!

I love Fall.. even though Fall in Texas isn't really Fall!! I made this handsome birthday card for my uncle who lives in chilly Minnesota! To make my leaves these beautiful Fall colors, I used my stamping sponges paired with ink and very vanilla cardstock, and I am so happy with the result! I also utilized some awesome new items that can be found in the 2012 Holiday Catalog! This holiday catalog is good through January 2, 2013... need a copy? Leave me a message below and I'll be happy to get one mailed out to you!!
